150 HP from 74 lbs?? Is that right? The 13B bare block without flywheel weighs 160 lb.

Its an all aluminum engine Scott. Well not the rotors and e-shaft. That is less PSRU too
and maybe 8000 RPM. The Mazda 13B is about 1300 cc as I recall. Jeff Spitzer
was project engineer on this engine while he was with Moller.

Here is a picture of the engine before it was converted to water cooling by Jeff.
It was based on the single rotor OMC snow mobile engine.

This chart is somewhat deceptive as it does not include the PSRU weight
for the Moller and the 13B.
